§ 278.325. Mapping for industrial or commercial development; restriction on sale of parcel for residential use; requirements for creating boundary by conveyance

1. If a subdivision is proposed on land which is zoned for industrial or commercial

development, neither the tentative nor the final map need show any division of the

land into lots or parcels, but the streets and any other required improvements are

subject to the requirements of NRS 278.010 to 278.630 , inclusive. 2. No parcel of land may be sold for residential use from a subdivision whose final

map does not show a division of the land into lots. 3. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, a boundary or line must not be created

by a conveyance of a parcel from an industrial or commercial subdivision unless a

professional land surveyor has surveyed the boundary or line and set the monuments. The surveyor shall file a record of the survey pursuant to the requirements set

forth in NRS 625.340 . Any conveyance of such a parcel must contain a legal description of the parcel that

is independent of the record of survey. 4. The provisions of subsection 3 do not apply to a boundary or line that is created

entirely within an existing industrial or commercial building. A certificate prepared by a professional engineer or registered architect certifying

compliance with the applicable law of this State in effect at the time of the preparation

of the certificate and with the building code in effect at the time the building was

constructed must be attached to any document which proposes to subdivide such a building. 5. A certificate prepared pursuant to subsection 4 for a building located in a county

whose population is 700,000 or more must be reviewed, approved and signed by the building

official having jurisdiction over the area within which the building is situated.
